*** ****** vs city official match thread***

[sheblue]

Considering the performance it was a good point. We can't be that bad again and they won't get much better, if we played today we would have won.

[phips]

was this Pellegrini being scared or was it in fact a great move?

no Silva and no Aguero. playing away from home. he probably knows the same stuff we've been saying about Bony. we've got a lot of injuries. so he set us up very defensively and played not to lose because this was a 6-pointer. this seemed very smart. we've criticized him for playing 4-4-2 and setting up very attack-minded vs. big sides like Barca and getting run over so now he did the opposite. or, im just giving him too much credit.

[PeterParker]

I am pleased, we went there to win a point and the plan work,

That been said, I will look only at our good things today:

1. Otamendi finally looks like the player we heard that was class.
2. Fernando is a real OCTOPUS
3. Zaba will have to work his ass off to play in front of Sagna.

The rest: fuck of Tyler and United.

[Mase]

Watch it again you fuckin Stevie Wonder.

Kiss and make up?

Give me ten minutes. I'm still shaking from being a nervous wreck the last ten mins of the match.

[ruralblue]

Fuck off Kolarov

post match hate wank coming up?

Fuck the draw, fuck the football, fuck the derby and fuck everything, are you okay Mase? Do you need help? T'th'ambulance? You on't floor?

[gmercer1]

Only positives......we didn't lose didn't concede and Otamendi played a blinder. I was gutted Mangala was dropped for him, but he proved me wrong.
Bony had some nice touches but I said before the game he would play in to the scums hands.
I would have preferred Navas on from the start instead of Bony and play either Sterling and De Bryne up top.
Thing that pissed me off was Pellers changing things just because they brought big brush on. He has to be one if not the worst player in the prem, no way should we be making a change for that cunt.
Toure was shite today as well.
Saga did well and Fernadinho didn't stop running again.

[Woodyblue]

We were awful today and we all know we can be so much better. If I was a rag( God forbid) I would be more pissed off. How can they improve? They can't and their total lack of class (apart from Martial) will show as the season progresses. As far as I can see up to now Arse are the only team that look anywhere near our class this year

Seems sound common sense

[lets all have a disco]

Look it wasnt the greatest game ever but we went there and got our point.

You gotta take these games if you want to win shit wether we like it or not.

[Beefymcfc]

This isn't the same shite we've played the last few years. This lot pass to each other.

0-0 is a good result and we are top going into 2 very winnable games

Exactly. I had the Rags as favourites due to their home foirm and us being two Superstars light. We've been spoilt lately with the wins at theirs but this season, with the spend they've had, was one of attrition

More than happy with the result and we've proved that we can take a defensive formation if needed

[Mase]

Fuck off Kolarov

I was that nervous I didn't know what I was writing.

Agreed. The lack of opportunities for rags show that Manuel got something right. Compared with how open we were vs Sevilla.

Agreed with that mate. I rather take this than playing great but losing because Nasri ducks in the wall and then have the Scum run away with the title.

[carl_feedthegoat]

Not one shot on goal.............that must be a record and also makes Pellers a fuckign hypocritical cunt.

We played for a draw.

Terrible football from Yaya and KDB...Game plan for the scum against Bony is a piece of piss....you know Bony will trap the ball and then wait half an hour before he releases it, so you just smother him and he will do fuckall with it...................and so it happened.............

I want him gone in January , hes no fuckign replacement for the 2 we just released.

At least Bony makes the game, unlike Sicknote.

Probably first time ever I agree with you on something, this is dead right.

I've never felt this disappointed in Pelligrini before. We are better than that and should be playing to win, and playing attacking football is clearly something he prides himself on. We never wanted to try and score today, we gave them a ton of respect and just wanted a 0-0 draw, and it was a horrible game and a disappointing result.

Frankly I feel disgusted about that. Feels like a loss to me. SO disappointed in Pelligrini.

[zabbadabbado]

Tbh i am disappointed with a point. I think the Rags are dog shit, and were there for the taking today.

Playing with a top 2 of Yaya, and Bony, for so long, literally killed us today. It was not happening. Bony really is fucking woeful, he brings us nothing. The only chance he created was for the Rags with that lazy half arsed pass, is the lad colour blind. Rags were emboldened because the ball kept being given back time after time

Also Why does Pellegrini not play KDB in his right position instead of Shoe horning him in to our side and putting him on the right. We had the players to win there today. If we had set up differently. What's the fucking point starting with 2 pacy wingers, with a slow static forward who never moves more than one inch towards the ball, and cant control it or hold up play to save his life, Surely Pellegrini can see Iheanacho suties our style much better.He had Jones flapping within minutes of coming on the pitch.

Missed opportunity imo.

Id rather we had played fantasy football, that we all know we can play, and lose by a solitary goal than have to watch that utter shit today.

[sheblue]

No need for any negativity, it was a well engineered point. Especially when most of the offensive players were very poor.
Sterling was pretty useless, navas did fuck all when the came on yaya, Kev poor enough, bony struggled with three defenders up his hole.
Not a bad point, happy enough.

[PeterParker]

Actually, the first shot on target from both teams was in the 84 minute. That sort of shot from Navas.

The second and last was from Smalling.
